What Makes Disney After Hours Events Special?

These exclusive events give you access to Disney’s most beloved attractions with far fewer guests. Imagine taking on the thrills of Space Mountain, embarking on the new adventure with Tiana’s Bayou Adventure, or joining the resistance in Star Wars: Rise of the Resistance—without worrying about long lines or virtual queues. Whether you’re there to enjoy the attractions or soak in the unique atmosphere of Disney at night, the limited crowds make it an extraordinary experience.

Another perk? You can enter the park as early as 7 pm with your event ticket, giving you extra time to enjoy even more magic before the official After Hours fun begins.

What Perks Come with a Disney After Hours Event?

Beyond access to your favorite attractions with shorter waits, your After Hours ticket includes complimentary snacks. Throughout the night, you can indulge in unlimited popcorn, Mickey ice cream bars, fruit bars, and soft drinks, perfect for keeping you fueled for late-night fun!

Ticket Prices and Discounts

Ticket prices vary depending on the park and event date:

  • Magic Kingdom: $175–$185
  • EPCOT: $155–$175
  • Hollywood Studios: $155–$185
